**Rate the Music: Week 34**

**M-A-G** · 10-01-2025, 11:09 AM

Oh, you pesky forums. Always making me late with this fucker. Well, it's here. Week 34 of this project and we're kicking off spooky season with the first of October. We'll be doing a month-long celebration of the times with some choice horror themed games and their music. Will they be some of your favorites? Well, we'll see, but how about we deal with last week's track from Batman: Arkham Asylum. How did All Who Follow You stack up?

Wily Fortress 1 (Mega Man 2) - 8.75
One-Winged Angel (Final Fantasy 7) - 8.71
Aquatic Ambience (Donkey Kong Country) - 8.66
At Doom's Gate (Doom) - 8.375
Guile Stage Theme (Super Street Fighter 2 Turbo) - 8.25
Secret of the Forest (Chrono Trigger) - 8.14
Go Straight (Streets of Rage 2) - 8
Bloody Tears (Castlevania 2: Simon's Quest) - 7.85
Anything But Tangerines (Earthworm Jim 2) - 7.75
Fear Factory (Donkey Kong Country) - 7.75
Green Hill Zone (Sonic the Hedgehog) - 7.72
Rainbow Road (Mario Kart 64) - 7.71
I Sawed the Demons (Doom) - 7.33
Fight Against Smithy (Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars) - 7.2
Halo (Halo: Combat Evolved) - 7.125
Spark Mandrill Stage (Mega Man X) - 7
Tube of Medusa (Ecco: The Tides of Time) - 7
Act 2 Part 2 (Ninja Gaiden) - 6.66
Ozar Midrashim (Legacy of Kain: Soul Reaver) - 6.6
> > All Who Follow You (Batman: Arkham Knight - 6.6 < <
Zangief Stage Theme (Super Street Fighter 2 Turbo) - 6.4
Breeze - In Monochrome Night (Silent Hill 3) - 6.25
Big Apple, 3AM (Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle: Turtles in Time) - 6.16
Day 2 - Metalhead (Vectorman) - 6.16
Quick Man Stage (Mega Man 2) - 6.16
Cosmo Canyon (Final Fantasy 7) - 6.14
Apocalypse Battle (X-Men Legends 2: Rise of Apocalypse) - 5.75
Still Alive (Mirror's Edge) - 5.5
The Instinct (Killer Instinct) - 5.42
Blast Man Stage (Mega Man 11) - 4.85
Heaven (The Impossible Game) - 4.16
Goro's Lair (Mortal Kombat) - 4
The Jack Attack (You Don't Know Jack: Television) - 3.57

A 6.6? Pretty middle of the road. That's not what we want to see. Maybe some of our spooky tracks for this month can accomplish the task of claiming a top spot on our leaderboard? Where to start? How about a franchise that just flat out throws every monster archetype in the book at you? Well, they throw them in a fighting arena for our entertainment, at least. Darkstalkers from Capcom has everything from a werewolf to a mummy to a cat girl, but what's more traditional than a vampire for the Halloween season? Here's Demitri Maximoff from Darkstalkers: The Night Warriors....

I've been sitting on this one for a while, but it only seemed appropriate to wait for this month to tackle it. And tackle it we shall. What's your call on this one? Does it hit the right notes? Let's hope I made some good choices for this entire month and we'll see you next week.

Would do 8.5 but gave it a bump.

No matter what may happen to me, just remember Lzzy Hale gave me the bedroom eyes... ...again.
